navFormReceiveReadDateTime (Function)

This function will read the value of a date or time field on a received form.

Note that the received form is only valid after a "Form received" event is raised; the event will not be removed until the navFormReceiveDone function is called.

Input:

id : DINT (1..2147483647)

ID of the field to read.

Output:

linsec : DINT

The value of the field.

For time fields, this is the number of seconds since midnight on 1980-01-01.

Returns: INT

Declaration:

FUNCTION navFormReceiveReadDateTime : INT;
VAR_INPUT
  id         : DINT;
  linsec     : ACCESS DINT;
END_VAR;

Example:

INCLUDE rtcu.inc
 
PROGRAM NavigationExample;
VAR
  date : DINT;
  time : DINT;
END_VAR;
BEGIN
  ...
  // Read the date from field 16
  navFormReceiveReadDateTime(ID := 16, linsec := date);
  // Read the time from field 17
  navFormReceiveReadDateTime(ID := 17, linsec := time);
  // Combine date and time in the date variable.

  date := date + time;
  ...
END;
END_PROGRAM;
